Quarry - Ally Kennen

  It started off well but the stories soul kind of left during the final chapters. Almost like a dementor entered another series of books now that we are back in the Potter mood. (J.K Rowling is currents writing a screenplay adaptation of her book: Fantastical Beasts and where to find them, Review coming soon, watch this space!) So yes, the book made you think about different characters in different ways once you read different parts of the book. Which is quite interesting. Until the book stops suddenly at a dead end in the last few pages. I felt that the ending actually came about in the previous chapter. Like the final chapter would reveal the last piece of the jigsaw, hat told me the point of the book- Only there wasn't one. The last jigsaw piece remained under the sofa, the runner fell on the final sprint, the story for me, remained incomplete.

  4/10 Do you think differently to me? What are your thoughts on this novel?...

Journey To Jo'burg - Beverley Naidoo

  This was a novella My class read in school, and to be perfectly honest; for a fiction book it was very dry and just far too 'non-fiction' for a fiction book. So for me, this book was sadly a no. It had a lot in it for a novella, and I can see why we read it in class, especially for English. But unfortunately it just didn't have that 'humph' if you get what I'm talking about.  3/10 For me this wasn't a fiction it was a non-fiction, despite what the cover says...

The Blood Stone - Jamila Gavin

 This was a great read! A bit confusing at times as it slides from past to present tense regularly. But other than that it is fairly easy to get through. I enjoyed this book because of the adventure and mystery it has in it. 8/10 This was an intriguing read.  

The Lord Of The Rings - J.R.R. Tolkien

Sorry that I haven't posted for a while, but when you see the title of this review, you'll properly find out why! The book is written very thoroughly with lots of detail and history. Did you know Tolkien even made his own language! I think the books were all good but I especially enjoyed the second one: The Two towers as it is where they really get into the fellowship and it gets a ton more interesting! Not for the light-hearted this book will take you to the limit!  I will give numbers out of ten for each book... The Fellowship of the Ring: 9/10, The Two Towers: 10/10 and finally, The Return Of the King: 8/10
